Donald A. Otenasek, longtime financial editor of the old Baltimore News American, died last week at the age of 78, according to an obituary in the Baltimore Sun.
Frederick Rasmussen writes, “Born in Baltimore and raised on Ashland Avenue, he was a 1949 graduate of City College. He attended Loyola College for a year and graduated in 1953 from the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University.
“Mr. Otenasek began his 25-year newspaper career as a police reporter at the News American in 1961, and later was a county reporter and finally the newspaper’s financial editor.
“Mr. Otenasek, who also had been president of the New Union of Baltimore, the newspaper’s independent bargaining unit, for eight years, retired in 1986 when the newspaper folded.”
